Events

Match Events

0' And we are off! Lincoln City FC vs Wigan Athletic FC — let the football do the talking.
5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
10' Both keepers have barely been tested. Lincoln City FC and Wigan Athletic FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Wigan Athletic FC that had 380 games and scored 405 goals.
20' It looks like no one’s ball. Wigan Athletic FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
25' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
30' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
35' With 0 assists to his name this season, Adam Jackson is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Wigan Athletic FC.
40' Jason Kerr has been relatively quiet despite scoring 10 goals in his last 251 appearances.
45' It’s gonna be a card for Adam Jackson.
50' named a 3-1-4-2 earlier, and opted for a 4-1-4-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
51' It’s a booking for Wigan Athletic FC player. James Carragher gets a card.
56' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
59' Joe Hugill makes way for Callum McManaman at the 59 minute mark. A tactical switch from Wigan Athletic FC.
63' Another substitution for Lincoln City FC to replace Bailey Cadamarteri by Jovon Makama on 63 minute.
68' The energy levels are beginning to show. Shaun Maloney might look to freshen things up shortly.
73' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Wigan Athletic FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
76' The whistle greets Thelo Aasgaard as he departs to be replaced by Scott Smith.
80' Wigan Athletic FC ring the changes. James Carragher has done his job and it is now time for Babajide Adeeko to step up.
81' Erik Ring has so much to prove this time. He replaces Dom Jefferies on 81 minute.
84' Poor challenge from Tendayi Darikwa. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
89' Dale Taylor, a Northern Ireland , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
The points are shared — Lincoln City FC 0-0 Wigan Athletic FC. Honours even.
